Two Deer Hurt In Leap Through Store Window Police

Two deer jumped through a window at Queen's Nutritional Products in East Allentown yesterday morning, but escaped before police were able to capture the seriously injured animals.

According to police, one deer ran out of the store at 1424 Pennsylvania Ave. immediately through a screen window. The deer that remained inside ran throughout the store until an employee opened a back door and let it out.

When police arrived, they found one of the deer near the East Side Swim Club. It appeared to have a broken leg and mouth and nose injuries. The deer escaped while police called a state game warden to find out whether the animal should be shot.

The other deer, which police said had a severely injured leg, was nowhere to be found. Police said they have been advised by the game warden to shoot the animals if they are found.
